[Jerusalem Talmud Shabbat 16:1:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Jerusalem%20Talmud%20Shabbat/r/16:1:1)

**משנה:** כָּל כִּתְבֵי הַקּוֹדֶשׁ מַצִּילִין אוֹתָן מִפְּנֵי הַדְּלֵיקָה בֵּין שֶׁקּוֹרִין בָּהֶן וּבֵין שֶׁאֵינָן קוֹרִין בָּהֶן אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁכְּתוּבִים בְּכָל לָשׁוֹן טְעוּנִים גְּנִיזָה. מִפְּנֵי מָה אֵין קוֹרִין בָּהֶן מִפְּנֵי בִיטּוּל בֵּית הַמִּדְרָשׁ.

**Le Talmud de Jérusalem, traduit par Moise Schwab, 1878-1890 [fr]:**
**MISHNAH:** One saves all holy Scriptures from a fire¹, whether they be used for reading or not used for reading²; even though they be written in any language they have to be hidden³. Why does one not read in them⁴? Because of neglect of the House of Study.

footnotes:
¹ Since making a fire is prohibited on the Sabbath, so is extinguishing a fire as long as no human lives are endangered by it. The Mishnah supposes that the houses are single family adobe houses separated from one another so that normally there is no danger of the fire spreading and endangering others.
² For public readings. Scrolls of books of Scripture not for public readings are either Hagiographa or defective copies of Torah and Prophets.
³ If they are no longer usable they have to be disposed of in a dignified way; they may not be abandoned in garbage. Therefore even defective copies may be saved in a fire.
⁴ Hagiographa are not to be read on the Sabbath since this would interfere with people attending public lectures held for the benefit of people who during the week have no opportunity of Torah study.

**הלכה:** כָּל כִּתְבֵי הַקּוֹדֶשׁ כול׳. מָהוּ בֵּין שֶׁקּוֹרִין בָּהֶן בֵּין שֶׁאֵין קוֹרִין בָּהֶן. בֵּין שֶׁיֵּשׁ בָּהֶן טָעִיּוֹת. בֵּין שֶׁאֵין בָּהֶן טָעִיּוֹת. וְהָא תַנֵּי. סֵפֶר שֶׁיֵּשׁ בּוֹ שְׁתַּיִם שָׁלֹשׁ טָעִיּוֹת בְּכָל דַּף וָדַף מְתַקְּנוֹ וְקוֹרֵא בוֹ. אַרְבַּע אֵינוֹ קוֹרֵא בוֹ. מִן מַה דְתַנִּינָן. מִפְּנֵי מָה אֵין קוֹרִין בָּהֶן. מִפְּנֵי בִיטּוּל בֵּית הַמִּדְרָשׁ. הָדָא אָמְרָה. בֵּין תּוֹרָה לִנְבִיאִים. לְכִתְבֵי הַקּוֹדֶשׁ.

**Le Talmud de Jérusalem, traduit par Moise Schwab, 1878-1890 [fr]:**
**HALAKHAH:** “All holy Scriptures,” etc. What means “whether they are used for reading or not used for reading”? Whether they contain errors or do not contain errors. Was it not stated: If a scroll²³ contains two or three errors on every page, one corrects it and reads from it; with four one does not read from it²⁴ 1:11, 71c l. 69.In the Babli, *Menaḥot* 29b, there is disagreement whether three errors on every page or only four are cause for disqualification.. Since we have stated, “why does one not read in them⁴? Because of neglect of the House of Study;” this implies that there is a difference between Torah and Prophets and Hagiographa²⁵.

footnotes:
²³ A Torah scroll.
²⁴ Since the text is unreliable, one never can be sure that all errors were corrected. The same statements Megillah
⁴ Hagiographa are not to be read on the Sabbath since this would interfere with people attending public lectures held for the benefit of people who during the week have no opportunity of Torah study.
²⁵ Since Torah and Prophets have to be read in the synagogue on the Sabbath, the only candidates for books which should not be read on the Sabbath are Hagiographa.

**Le Talmud de Jérusalem, traduit par Moise Schwab, 1878-1890 [fr]:**
One does not save from a fire²⁶ which disagrees with the preceding argument and states that Hagiographa cannot be saved from a fire if this would involve transgressing rabbinic prohibitions.. For him who says, they render hands impure²⁷ 3:8 reports on disagreement whether touching a scroll of *Ecclesiastes* makes one’s hands impure. There seems to be tacit agreement that *Esther* does not make the hands impure. This impurity is purely rabbinical; it was instituted so people should not store their heave, which is sanctified, with also holy Scripture, since this would attract rats which would attack the leather on which the scrolls were written. A scroll which does not render the hands impure is not holy; no rabbinic restrictions would have to be waved to save them from a fire., one saves them from a fire; but for him who says, they do not render hands impure, one does not save them from a fire. They objected: Is there not a Hebrew book which was written in Aramaic²⁸ 4:5.; it will not render hands impure but one saves it from a fire, since we have stated: “even though they are written in any language they have to be hidden.” The Mishnah follows Rebbi Simeon, since Rebbi Simeon said, nothing forbidden only rabbinically stands in the way of Holy Scriptures²⁹ 10:3. Only biblical prohibitions have to be observed when caring for Scripture on the Sabbath.. Do they disagree³⁰ and *Eruvin*.? There it is because of their degradation³¹, but here everybody agrees that one saves them from a fire. For whom is it needed? For Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel. Even though Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel said³² 1:11. There do exist approved Aramaic versions of the Pentateuch and Jonathan ben Uziel’s Aramaic paraphrase of Prophets but no recognized Aramaic versions of Hagiographa. The existing Aramaic versions of *Psalms*, *Proverbs*, *Job*, *Esther,* and *Chronicles* all seem to be post-Talmudic., “also Hagiographa they permitted only that they could be written in Greek,” would he agree here that one saves them from a fire? “It happened that Rabban [Simeon ben]³³ Gamliel was supervising builders on the the Temple Mount when he an Aramaic version of Job was brought to him. He told the builder to hide it under a row of stones.”

**Le Talmud de Jérusalem, traduit par Moise Schwab, 1878-1890 [fr]:**
Even though they said, one reads Hagiographa only after the afternoon prayers, nevertheless one studies and preaches about them³⁴, which present sermon concepts, associate to pentateuchal texts not only texts from the Prophets but also from Hagiographa. This use is perfectly legitimate. (In legal contexts, קֹרֵא means not simply “reading” but “reading with correct accents”). The Babli, 117b, notes that in Babylonia one did neither preach nor study on Sabbath afternoon after prayers.. If he needs it, he takes and checks³⁵. ³⁶. *rabba* 15(4), *Lament, rabbati* 4(25). It is quoted at length in *Sefer haMakhria*ˋ (Isaias from Trani) §31 (Kohn Klein, Munkacs 1900, col. 20a). An example³⁷: Rebbi, the Elder Rebbi Ḥiyya, and Rebbi Ismael ben Rebbi Yose were sitting and explaining the plain sense of a scroll of Lamentations on a Ninth of Av which fell on a Sabbath (after the afternoon prayers.)³⁸ of *Lev*. *rabba* and related mss. sources, and in the quote in *Sefer haMakhria*ˋ. In *Lament*. *rabbati* it is replaced by “towards nightfall”. As the following text shows, the three rabbis studied the text before the afternoon prayers; the text should be deleted. They left over one alphabetic poem. They said, we shall come tomorrow and finish it. When Rebbi was on the way home, he hurt his finger and recited about himself, *many are the evildoer’s hurts*³⁹. 32:10. He referred to himself as evildoer because he read the text before the afternoon prayers for its simple meaning; had they used it as basis for sermons it would have been acceptable.. [The Elder]⁴⁰ Rebbi Ḥiyya said to him, it is our fault that this happened to you, as it is written, *our spirit*, *the Eternal’s anointed, was caught by their corruption*⁴¹. 4:20.. Rebbi Ismael ben Rebbi Yose told him, that could have been said about us if we had not occupied ourselves with it; so much more since we did occupy ourselves with it. He went home, put a dry sponge⁴² on it and tied it from the outside with bast. Rebbi Ismael ben Rebbi Yose said, from this we learned three things: A sponge does not heal but protects⁴³; bast is prepared⁴⁴ because of uses which are forbidden on the Sabbath; therefore it may be used even for occasions which could not have been anticipated at the start of the Sabbath., and one recites from Hagiographa only after afternoon prayers⁴⁵.

footnotes:
³⁴ As Jacob Mann has pointed out, the classical Midrashim
³⁵ Checking the text for a sermon or similar use is appropriate at all times.

⁴⁴ Bast is like string; it always is available when needed and never is muqṣeh
⁴⁵ This statement shows that the text mentioned in Note 38 is to be deleted.

Then at a place where there is a House of Study one should not read, at a place where there is no House of Study one should read⁴⁶ 3:7, Notes 304–310.? You only have what Rebbi Neḥemiah stated, as Rebbi Neḥemiah stated, why may one only read Hagiographa after afternoon prayers? Because of persons’ documents. Because if you were telling him that it is permitted, then he would say, there is nothing wrong if I would occupy myself with my documents. Since you are telling him that it is forbidden, then he will say, since Hagiographa are forbidden, so much more private documents. This implies that Mishnah has precedence over Bible. This supports what Rebbi Simeon ben Yoḥai stated⁴⁶ 3:7, Notes 304–310., as Rebbi Simeon ben Yoḥai stated, he who studies the written Torah does himself good that is not so good; he who studies Mishnah is occupied in an endeavor which deserves reward; he who studies Talmud could not endeavor anything greater than this, always a person should pursue Mishnah more than Talmud⁴⁷. Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun said, this was before Rebbi incorporated most of the Mishnah in the Talmud, but since Rebbi incorporated most of the Mishnah in the Talmud, a person should pursue Talmud more than Mishnah⁴⁸ 1–6 (p. 19 Note 3) one should translate: “he who studies the written Torah does himself good that is not so good; he who studies tannaitic traditions is occupied in an endeavor which deserves reward; concerning him who studies Talmud there is no endeavor greater than this, a person should always pursue tannaitic tradition more than Talmud. Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun said, this was before Rebbi incorporated most of tannaitic tradition (Mishnah and *baraitot*) in the Talmud, but since Rebbi incorporated most of the tannaitic material in the Talmud, a person should pursue Talmud more than Mishnah.”.

“One does not save benedictions which contain pentateuchal materials from a fire⁴⁹. Because of this, they said: Writers of benedictions are burners of the Torah⁵⁰. It happened that there was a writer of benedictions; Rebbi Ismael went to check him out. When he noticed Rebbi Ismael’s steps, he took a bundle of benedictions and threw them into a bowl of water. In the following formulation he spoke to him: The punishment for the later deed is worse than the one for the earlier⁵¹.” Rebbi Joshua ben Levi said, one who writes down sermons has no part, one who preaches them is going to be singed, one who listens to him is not rewarded⁵² 16:2..

footnotes:
⁴⁹ Prayer texts which contain biblical quotes. The only prayer texts we have from Antiquity are Sadducee texts from Qumran. Rabbinic prayer books are known only from later Geonim, after the Arab conquest of Iraq. Prayer texts were considered part of oral tradition, to be memorized by following the reader in public service.
⁵⁰ Since one is not permitted to disregard rabbinic prohibitions in order to save prayer texts, writing prayer texts is the equivalent of exposing the quoted verses to desctruction.
⁵¹ The disrespect shown to the holy text is worse than making what is forbidden. Tosephta 13:4 (ed. Liebermann).
⁵² R. Joshua ben Levi was a renowned preacher. What he wants to say is that the preacher must present original thoughts; if he writes directions for other preachers he propagates dishonesty and as such has no part in the Future World; the person who buys from him preaches dishonestly and will be damaged in his soul; the persons who hear the sermon will not be moved; their time is wasted.

⁵³ 16:10. The piece is missing in Tactate *Soferim* in *Maḥzor Vitry*. Rebbi Joshua ben Levi said, I never looked into a book of sermon concepts, except that once I looked, and I found written there: The 175 paragraphs where in the Torah is written speech, saying, commandment⁵⁴, correspond to the years of our father Abraham, as it is written, *you took gifts from Man*⁵⁵. 68:19. Traditionally the Psalm is read as describing the Exodus and the epiphany at Sinai. The gift is the Torah given to Moses., and it is written, *the great Man among giants*⁵⁶. 14:15.. The 147 songs written in Psalms⁵⁷ correspond to the years of our father Jacob. This teaches that all praises by which Israel praise the Holy One, praise to Him, correspond to the years of Jacob, as it is said, *You are Holy*, *throning over the praises of Israel*⁵⁸. 22:4.. The 123 times Israel answer “halleluiah”⁵⁹ 3:12 (Babli *Sukkah* 38b), still is common among Yemenite congregations. The exact places of response are indicated in the Yemenite *Tikālil*. correspond to the years of Aaron, *Halleluiah*, *praise God by His holy one*⁶⁰. 150:1., Aaron his holy one, *for Aaron*, *the Eternal’s holy one*⁶¹ 106:16.. Nevertheless I was frightened in the night⁶².

⁶⁴“Gospels⁶⁵ and books of heretics⁶⁶, some Tannaim say⁶⁷ 71d l. 59, Babli *Ševuot* 35a., one tears out the Names⁶⁸ and burns them; some Tannaim say⁶⁹, one burns them with their Names. Rebbi Tarphon said, I would hit my sons; if they came into my house I would burn them together with their Names. For if a persecutor would persecute me I would seek asylum in a pagan temple but would not seek asylum in heretics’ houses, for the worshippers of idolatry do not know about Him, how could they disavow Him? But the heretics know Him and disavow Him; about them David said⁷⁰. 139:21., *Your haters*,*o Eternal, I shall hate*, etc. This homily they⁷¹ preached: If in order to bring peace between a man and his wife the verse commands that the Name written in holiness be erased⁷². 5:23., it is only logical that the books of heretics which propagate ill will and quarrel between Israel and their Father in Heaven should be burned with their Names.”

**MISHNAH:** One saves the case of a scroll with the scroll, and the case of phylacteries with the phylacteries even if there are coins inside⁵ articles with those one is authorized to move (cf. Chapter 3, Note 172).. Where does one save it to? To a side street which is a dead end⁶; it may be used to deposit the scrolls even if there is no *eruv*. It is presumed that the dead-end street is bordered by walls of houses or courtyards on three sides.; Ben Bathyra says, also one open on both ends⁷. Therefore the majority does not permit the used of such a path on the Sabbath. Ben Bathyra permits its use as long as the street is walled in and is narrow enough (less than 16 cubits wide) to be disqualified as public domain for the rules of the Sabbath..

footnotes:
⁵ Even if valuables which are not to be moved on the Sabbath are inside the boxes in which scrolls or phylacteries are kept. Since speed is of the essence, one does not have to investigate but without asking may carry muqṣeh
⁶ Even if publicly owned and accessible to the public, a dead-end street never can be a public domain in the biblical sense for the rules of the Sabbath. For these rules, a dead-end street can be turned into common private domain of the dwellers in the street by an eruv
⁷ A thoroughfare, even if very narrow and walled in on two sides, can never be turned into a private domain by an eruv

**HALAKHAH:** ⁷³ Our Mishnah if it is not connected⁷⁴; but if it is connected it is like its body. One understands the case⁷⁵ of the book with the book. The case of phylacteries with the phylacteries⁷⁶? Rebbi Ḥaggai in the name of Rebbi Zeˋira understands it from the following: *The Eternal’s angel is camping around those who fear Him and saves them*⁷⁷. 34:8. Just as everything around a God-fearing person is protected, so everything around his religious objects is protected. Cf. *Ḥagigah* 2:1 (77c l. 12).. Similarly, it says. *then these men were bound in their coats*⁷⁸. 3:21. The coats also were saved..

footnotes:
⁷³ Discussion of Mishnah 2.
⁷⁴ If the scroll is permanently fixed in the case the Mishnah is unnecessary since the case is an appurtenance of the scroll. Therefore it is permitted to remove the scroll in its case to places rabbinically forbidden even if the scroll only lies in the case and could be removed without effort.
⁷⁵ Greek θήκη, ἡ.
⁷⁶ In no case would removing the phylacteries from a case take more than a fraction of a second. The case is not part of the phylacteries since the owner removes them every weekday to put them on.

**Le Talmud de Jérusalem, traduit par Moise Schwab, 1878-1890 [fr]:**
“Where does one save it to? To a side street which is a dead end.” Therefore not to one which is a thoroughfare. Everywhere you are saying, one who is walking is not like one who is putting down, but here you are saying, one who is walking is not like one who is putting down⁸¹. But one who is throwing. Everywhere you are saying, one who throws is not liable, but here you are saying, one who throws is liable⁸². Rebbi Ḥizqiah in the name of Rebbi Aḥa: we are dealing with the case that they did not make an *eruv*⁸³; the only question is whether there could have been an *eruv* or not.. Ben Bathyra is like Rebbi Jehudah, as we have stated there⁸⁴ 9:5. The argument is not only about the text quoted but mainly about the end of the Mishnah: “In addition, Rebbi Jehudah said, one may make an *eruv* for a side street which is a thoroughfare but the Sages forbid.” The argument of R. Jehudah, endorsed by Ben Bathyra, is that any narrow strip bounded on two opposite sides, either under a bridge or on a narrow thoroughfare, is a candidate for designation as a private domain.
It is asserted that Ben Bathyra permits moving to a thoroughfare because it could be unproblematic if there were an *eruv*; the Sages forbid since it never could be unproblematic.: “One may move things under bridges which are thoroughfares, the words of Rebbi Jehudah, but the Sages prohibit.”

footnotes:
⁸¹ If the house is adjacent to a thoroughfare one does not understand why the Sages opposed to ben Bathyra do not permit to carry the things into another house facing the same side street without stopping in the street since then there is no transport form a private domain to a non-private domain and therefore no biblical prohibition.
⁸² It is agreed that one may carry from the burning house into another house open to the same side street. The restriction to a dead-end street only applies to cases where one cannot carry but has to throw. But then Mishnah 11:1 states that the Sages declare not liable a person throwing from one private domain into another even over clearly public domain.
⁸³ It is clear that the Mishnah would not be necessary if there were an eruv

**HALAKHAH:** ⁸⁵ Rebbi Abun bar Ḥiyya in the name of Rebbi Abba bar Mamal, this is Rebbi Nehemiah’s who said, it can be taken only if necessary. Rebbi Yose said, the reason of the rabbis there is that everything in the house is prepared, but here if you would say so he would save from today for tomorrow⁸⁶ which has not been explicitly removed from use on the Sabbath.. The Mishnah is from Rebbi הונדקס⁸⁷; in the opinion of Krauss a Greek name Ἄνδοκος. The quote of the passage in the Mishnah commentary of Salomo Adani reads חיקיים, another unexplained form. It is best to accept the interpretation of I. Löw (in Krauss’s Dictionary) who sees in the statement of R. Hondikos not the statement of R. Yose in the Mishnah, but the statement in *Mekhilta dR*. *Ismael*, *ad Ex*. 16:25, that the triple mention of “today” in the verse implies the obligation to eat three meals on the Sabbath. The name of the tradent in the Munich ms. of the Mekhilta is הנדקא (in the quote in *Leqaḥ ṭov*, *Pesiqta zuṭreta ad Ex*. 16:25, ed. S. Buber Note 119, הינדקא), which would mean *Indicus*. In the Babli 117b (a related but different statement) and the quote of the *Mekhilta* in *Midrash Wehizhir* ed. I. M. Freimann p. 18 the name is חידקא. who said, one always saves food for three meals. Explain it if the fire started Friday evening before he ate⁸⁸. What should one say on the day of Atonement? Should he not save anything following the rabbis⁸⁹? Everybody agrees that one saves food for one meal because of the danger⁹⁰.

footnotes:
⁸⁵ Discussion of Mishnah 3.
⁸⁶ This refers to Mishnah 17:4 where it is asserted that all vessels may be used (and moved) on the Sabbath without establishing a need. R. Nehemiah disagrees and permits moving anything only for a genuine need. The first opinion wants to find in the Mishnah an endorsement of R. Nehemiah’s position since it is presented as anonymous opinion which implies that it is practice to be followed. The need in this case is the obligation to consume three meals on the Sabbath. Since there is no reason to restrict using food on the Sabbath, limiting the moving of food out of the house to the three obligatory meals can be explained only following R. Nehemiah. The argument is rejected by R. Yose who explains the Mishnah here as a rabbinic restriction, to avoid preparing on a Sabbath for the needs of weekday. One still holds that nothing is muqṣeh
⁸⁷ This name is a hapax
⁸⁸ As noted before, the statement should be that there is an obligation to eat three meals on the Sabbath. Since one of them is the Friday evening meal, there should be only two needed for the Sabbath.
⁸⁹ Since it is a fast day; there is no food needed on the day itself.
⁹⁰ Since it would be dangerous not to break the fast in the evening, everybody agrees that the meal after the end of the fast is part of the needs of the day.

⁹³ Since R. Yose ben R. Abun is a very late Amora, this attribution is impossible, even though the reading is quoted by R. Ḥananel (Babli 120a). It must be either R. Yose ben Rebbi Jehudah as in the Babli, even though the Tosephta reports him to hold the opposite opinion, or R. Jehudah ben Laqish as reported in the Tosephta.

¹² He requires only that the place be potentially one where the neighbors could carry; but in this case he excludes the dead-end street into which the common courtyard opens.

Rebbi Immi sent a crier to the markets of the Gentiles saying: “He who works will not lose.¹²⁴” Rebbi Eleazar ben Rebbi Yose said, that was danger to life. But if there was danger to life, Rebbi Immi himself should have fought the fire! Did we not state¹²⁵, in any case of danger to life one does not say that [the necessary work] be done by women¹²⁶ and *Yoma* 8:5 correctly: “Gentiles”. This also is the quote from *Šabbat* in Medieval sources (*Raviah* p. 338, *Or* *zarua* 2 §38, *Roqeaḥ* §109). or minors, but [it should be done] even by adults, even by Jewish persons. “It happened that there was a fire in the courtyard of Yose ben Simai in Shiḥin, and the garrison of the barracks¹²⁷, -*orum*, n. “military camp, barracks, fortress.” of Sepphoris came to fight it but he did not let them fight it; he said, let the collector collect his due¹²⁸. Immediately there formed a cloud which extinguished it. After the Sabbath he sent to each of them a tetradrachma and to their commander¹²⁹, ὁ, equivalent of Latin *praefectus* (*castrorum*). Tosephta 13:9 (ed. Liebermann). 50 denarii.” The Sages¹³⁰: R. Ḥanina (the Chief Rabbi of Sepphoris in a later generation.) In the Babli 121a, this is the opinion of the Sages, while Yose ben Simai wanted to encourage them to fight Sabbath fires at Sepphoris. The mention of the Sages here may be a contamination from the Babli. said, there was no need for him to do that. A Nabatean¹³¹: “A Samaritan”. Since a Samaritan as a Jew has to keep the Sabbath, the reading here is preferable. was in the neighborhood of Rebbi Jonah. There was a fire in Rebbi Jonah’s neighborhood; the Nabatean wanted to fight it but Rebbi Jonah did not let him. He said to him, because of my property! He said, yes¹³². And everything was saved. Rebbi Jonah from Kefar-Immi spread his garment over the grain stack and the fire retreated from it.

“And over a scorpion to prevent it from stinging.” “This happened before Rabban Joḥanan ben Zakkai in Arab¹³⁵ and he said, I fear that he incurred liability for a purification sacrifice¹⁹.” Rebbi Ulla said, eighteen years did he spend in Arab and only these two cases¹³⁶ came before him. He said, “Galilee, Galilee, you are hating Torah; in the end you will work for discharged veterans¹³⁷, *adj*. “discharged from military service”, cf. *Bava qamma* 10:6, Note 60..”

footnotes:
¹³⁵ A village not far from Sepphoris.
¹⁹ He was not sure whether the person putting the vessel over the scorpion was doing so in order to save people from being stung, in which case the action was permitted on the Sabbath, or whether he intended to use the scorpion for medical purposes after the Sabbath, in which case if would be a violation of biblical Sabbath rules.
¹³⁶ The one mentioned in the Mishnah here and another case in Mishnah 22:3.

**MISHNAH:** If a Gentile lit a candle²⁰, the Jew may use its light; but if he did it for the Jew it is forbidden. If he drew water²¹ to let his animals drink, the Jew may let his animals drink, but if he did it for the Jew it is forbidden. If the Gentile built a ramp to descend on it, the Jew may descend after him, but if he did it for the Jew it is forbidden. It happened that Rabban Gamliel and the Elders arrived in a ship, the Gentile make the ramp to descend on it and the Elders descended on it²².

footnotes:
²⁰ For himself.
²¹ From a cistern or in the public domain inaccessible to the Jew on the Sabbath.
²² After the Gentile skipper had left the ship on the ramp, arriving in the harbor on the Sabbath.

**HALAKHAH:** For himself and for a Jew¹³⁸? Let us hear from the following. Samuel was received at a Persian’s. The light went out. The Persian went and wanted to light it; Samuel turned his face around¹³⁹. When he saw¹⁴⁰ 122b, uses the Galilean root חמי. him occupied with his securities he knew that he did not light for him; Samuel again turned his face¹⁴¹. Rebbi Jacob bar Aḥa said, this implies that for himself and for a Jew it is forbidden¹⁴². Rebbi Jonah said, there is a difference since one does not bother a person to leave his house¹⁴³. Rebbi Eliezer¹⁴⁴ said, if it is since one does not bother a person to leave his house, why did Samuel turn his face around¹⁴⁵?

footnotes:
¹³⁸ This refers to Mishnah 9, about a Gentile making light. If it is for himself, the Jew may use it. If it was done exclusively for the Jew, its use is forbidden. Nothing is said about the case that the light was lit for the benefit both of the Gentile and the Jew.
¹³⁹ In order not to profit from the light which was lit on the Sabbath. Babli 122b.
¹⁴⁰ While this is a Babylonian story where the use of the root חזי is legitimate, it is more likely that this is a Babylonism in a Galilean text since the quote by Rashba, ad
¹⁴¹ Samuel turned around and looked at the light because he realized that his host lit the light for business purposes, not in order to engage in conversation with him.
¹⁴² This also is the text of Rashba, who wants to amend “forbidden” to “permitted”. The text should not be amended.
¹⁴³ Samuel was at a stranger’s house; in his own house he would not have turned around.
¹⁴⁴ There is no Amora R. Eliezer known. With Rashba one might read “R. Yose”.
¹⁴⁵ Since also a visitor is not thrown out of the house which he is visiting; the argument of R. Jonah cannot be correct but R. Jacob bar Aḥa is.
